Re: WARNING: FUKUSHIMA 3 facing meltdown, official now
Is my Math screwed up? Anyone?


So...1 Sievert = 1000 micro Sieverts?? If that is correct then the aforementioned 1,557.5 micro sievert = ~1.6 Sieverts??

Most meters measure these in rads/hr or Sieverts per hour. Normal is like 0.15 uSV/hr or 0.00000015 Sieverts per hour. If you ever get 1 Sievert of radiation or (100 rads) your are getting into really big trouble. Most folks see about 0.002 Sv per year...

Here is a nice meter at normal levels:

Re: WARNING: FUKUSHIMA 3 facing meltdown, official now
According to experts, any melted fuel would eat through the bottom of the reactor vessel. Next, it would eat through the floor of the already-damaged containment building. At that point, the uranium, plutonium and more dangerous byproducts would start escaping into the environment.

At some point in the process, the walls of the reactor vessel - 6 inches of stainless steel - would melt into a lava-like pile, slump into any remaining water on the floor, and potentially cause an explosion much bigger than the one caused by the hydrogen. Such an explosion would enhance the spread of radioactive contaminants.

If the reactor core became exposed to the external environment, officials would likely began pouring cement and sand over the entire facility, as was done at the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear accident in the Ukraine, Peter Bradford, a former commissioner of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, said in a briefing for reporters.

In short, what we Americans call"The China Syndrome"

1431: More from Japanese nuclear engineer Masashi Goto: He say that as the reactor uses mox (mixed oxide) fuel, the melting point is lower than that of conventional fuel.

Should a meltdown and an explosion occur, he says, plutonium could be spread over an area up to twice as far as estimated for a conventional nuclear fuel explosion. The next 24 hours are critical, he says.

Fukushima reactor receives MOX
FUKUSHIMA (Kyodo) Tokyo Electric Power Co. on Saturday loaded a nuclear reactor in Fukushima


Prefecture with MOX, a controversial fuel made with reprocessed plutonium and uranium oxides,


as it prepares to become the leading power utility's first facility to go pluthermal.

New cybervirus found in Japan / Stuxnet designed to attack off-line servers via USB memory sticks
The Yomiuri Shimbun

Stuxnet, a computer virus designed to attack servers isolated from the Internet, such as at power plants, has been confirmed on 63 personal computers in Japan since July, according to major security firm Symantec Corp.
The virus does not cause any damage online, but once it enters an industrial system, it can send a certain program out of control.
Symantec says the virus reaches the servers via USB memory sticks, and warns against the careless use of such devices.
Systems at power plants, gas stations and water facilities are not connected to the Internet to protect them from cyber-attacks.

With the amount of plutonium at that site, if a small proportion is leaked, the site itself will be contaminated for 10,000 years or so.

Re: WARNING: FUKUSHIMA 3 facing meltdown, official now
Yes, because MOX FUEL is recycled nuclear grade weapons material, see article


MOX Fuel From Weapons-Grade Plutonium


Nuclear Power Industry News


On February 25, 2010, the U.S. National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) announced that it entered into an inter-agency agreement with the government owned Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) in order to evaluate the use of a nuclear fuel made from surplus weapons plutonium. This announcement comes on the heels of President Obama’s recently submitted FY 2011 Budget Request, which included a 25.8% increase in funding to the NNSA.

One reason for the increase in funding relates to an agreement between Russia and the United States, initially signed in 2000, known as the Plutonium Management and Disposition Agreement. According to this Agreement, each country agreed to dispose of, or immobilize, 34 tons of surplus weapons-grade plutonium. Initially, both sides began dismantling nuclear weapons and simply stored the nuclear material. However, concerns on both sides began to grow regarding the ability to quickly reassemble the nuclear material into weapons should the need arise.

This resulted in both sides initiating efforts to use the surplus nuclear material in nuclear reactors, which would physically tranform the nuclear material into a material that is unsuitable for use in nuclear weapons. To this end, a facility called the Mixed Oxide Fuel Fabrication Facility (MFFF), located at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina, is currently being constructed which will convert weapons-grade plutonium into nuclear fuel that can be used in existing U.S. commercial reactor plants.
